When obedience means death, Puah's defiance may bring the hope of deliverance.
In the land of Egypt, Puah, a skilled midwife, leads a simple life until a fateful decree from Pharaoh shatters her world; she must kill all newborn Hebrew boys. Obedience means innocent lives lost, but defiance means her own death.
As the Hebrews suffer under harsh slavery, Pharaoh spares Puah and her guild-for now. But everything changes when Moses, a hidden Hebrew child raised by the Princess, rejects his royal inheritance, and flees after a deadly mistake. Decades later, he returns as God's chosen leader and brings plagues to devastate the land.
Puah, with her medical expertise and compassionate heart, stands in the center of this divine confrontation. As the final plague unfolds, she faces a decision that will change her life forever: stay in the only land she has ever known, or follow Yahweh into the wilderness, leaving behind the women she has dedicated her life to serve.
Accompany Puah as she faces tests of faith and discovers her path to obedience in Midwives of Moses, Book 1 in the Faith Finders series.

Klappentext
A god asked Puah to kill. That went against her faith. Her own God asked her to walk away. That went against her calling.
Until she is ordered by Pharaoh to kill newborn Hebrew males, Puah thought she had an easy profession. If she obeys, it means the deaths of untold innocents. If she doesn't, it means her death.
As Pharaohs rise and fall, Puah's people are forced into deeper oppression. Men are forced labor and women are sent to serve their Egyptian counterparts. Only Puah and her recently acquired guild are free. For now.
Moses, one of the hidden babies who was adopted by the Princess, is being groomed to take over. When he denies his right to rule and mistakenly kills an Egyptian, he is forced to flee into the desert. Forty years later, he returns as the instrument of God.
With her medical training and passion for helping pregnant women, Puah places herself in the heart of hell on earth as the intensity of plagues increases.
After the last plague falls, she must make the decision to stay in Egypt or face the unknown wilderness. Puah's heart has always been for the women of Egypt. How can she obey God to walk away from them in their greatest hour of need? She can only make the choice once and morning won't wait.
Follow the faith journey of this brave woman in Book 1 of the Faith Finders Series, Midwives of Moses.
